Having your right to vote and own a firearm suspended indefinitely is part of the "paying your debt to society" in my opinion.
In Louisiana a felon can vote again after 5 years of completing the sentence/parole or probation. It should be the same when it comes to owning a firearm, especially for nonviolent crimes.

I agree, but it shouldn't be automatic. I also approve of states deciding that for themselves.
If you served your time, served your probation, I agree with rights being reinstated. I was only saying that just because you got out of prison doesn't mean you aren't still on a probationary period.

In Florida we also make them pay off their fines and restitution. On some levels I like this, but I also know people slapped with 75-100k fines for marijuana trafficking, and we're really into some 8a excessive fines shite.
